Abstract: The invention relates to a yarn feed apparatus for a workstation of a cabling machine for feeding a creel yarn from a feed package arranged on a bobbin creel or from a transport conveyor arranged above the cabling machine to a cabling apparatus equipped with a cabling spindle and/or for feeding a starter yarn from the cabling spindle to the creel yarn, a workstation of a cabling machine for producing a cabling twist and a method for feeding a creel yarn using a yarn feed apparatus of this type.

Abstract: The invention relates to a traversing thread guide for causing a thread to traverse at a workstation of a textile machine that produces cross-wound packages, comprising a base carrier, which can be arranged on a traversing rod, and a thread-guiding element, which is arranged on the base carrier and which has two wall portions, which are arranged at a distance from each other and delimit a thread insertion slot and a thread-guiding channel.

Abstract: Yarn-tension influencing device for a twisting or cabling machine for feeding a yarn via a traversing yarn guide to a take-up package, the yarn-tension influencing device having a first deflection roller, arranged downstream of a yarn handling device in the yarn transport direction and is provided for guiding the yarn from a balloon yarn guide through the yarn handling device and for deflecting the yarn; a second deflection roller, arranged downstream of the first deflection roller in the yarn transport direction and is provided for further deflection of the yarn; a third deflection roller, arranged downstream of the second deflection roller in the yarn transport direction and is provided for adjusting the angle of wrap of the yarn around an advance roller; and an advance roller, arranged downstream of the third deflection roller in the yarn transport direction and is provided for regulating the yarn tension.

Abstract: An outer-yarn brake (14) for a cording or cabling machine with at least one workstation comprising a bobbin rack (2) for holding at least one feed bobbin (4), a spindle (12) for the rotation of a yarn (6) withdrawn from the feed bobbin (4) around a bobbin pot associated with the spindle (12), and a yarn-guide channel (10) for guiding the yarn (6) received via a free end-portion (8) of the yarn-guide channel (10) to the spindle (12). The outer-yarn brake (14) can be arranged in the yarn running direction of the withdrawn yarn (6) between the feed bobbin (4) and the yarn-guide channel (10) to guide through the withdrawn yarn (6) and comprises a clamping portion for defined braking of the running yarn (6). The outer-yarn brake (14) can be coupled to the free end-portion (8) in order to form a yarn input for the yarn-guide channel (10).

Abstract: A cabling spindle 2 comprising a spindle pot 5 and an upper part which is constituted as a conical cabling hood 1, wherein a yarn brake 7 is arranged in the cabling hood 1. According to the invention, the cabling hood 1 merges in its upper region from the conical shape into a convex shape.
